Shrimp with Feta Cheese is a traditional Greek recipe that is quick and easy as well as delicious- the perfect combination of seafood and cheese to rustle up in minutes. It tastes so good that it feels like a lot of effort has gone into making the dish. Quite the contrary! Its a one-pot-throw-everything-in recipe. Shrimp is cooked in a cast iron pan which makes the cooking really quick and then blasted under the broil mode for a couple of minutes till the feta cheese melts into the sauce and the heat begins to char the shrimp. The mint and oregano gives that oomph that brings out more flavor. Serve this dish with rice, pasta, orzo, crusty Italian bread or potatoes @sarchakra
